What would you all consider a 'victory' for OSU - top 10?
If you're using our last showing as a measuring stick, then I would say yes.
But that's the worst overall performance I've seen us have this year, so fingers crossed we're wrestling better. If we're around our peak, I could see maybe as high as #5.

Ryder with the pin 8D
Go figure right? Feldman got a fall as well and Mendez a TF. Pretty decent start all things considered. McCrone lost narrowly 4-3 to Ramos, Bouzakis beat a quality opponent 8-5, D'Emilio with a convincing 7-2 win, Wilcox won his pigtail and got slaughtered by Haines of course, Welsh wins, Ryder with the fall, Geog goes down as expected, and Feldman with the pin.

Next round in championships very likely will be a bloodbath though unless we pull some upsets. Bouzakis over #1 Fix, D'Emilio with the #3 seed, and Ryder against the #2 seed...three likely more outs, though I could see any of those guys somehow winning. But that's a product of the B1G Tourney results, now you just gotta accept it and go win.

Props to Bouzakis and Ryder, they pushed Fix and Salazar to their limits.
Mendez, Welsh, and Feldman moving on in the champs
Feldman gets Kerk, so...yeah.
Welsh gets Ruth from Illinois. Welsh is 0-2 this year against Ruth but they were 2-1 and 4-1 SV, so absolutely one that Welsh can take.
Mendez gets the #9 from Nebraska, Brock Hardy...Mendez is 1-0 against Hardy with an 11-3 MD earlier in the year.

An aside but looking forward to next year when some of the 6th year guys are gone and hopefully don't turn into 7th year guys. Could next year be the year again...?
